Removing the top 'beam panel' of the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv TG?

[JFM98]

Will upload pics shortly. What I am trying to do is remove the top panel that has the cross beams for rigidity. I need to do this so that I can: mount the fans and radiator to the tray, slide that in then replace the beam panel and sandwich it all together. I could drill holes where the screws will go for the fans as when they are mounted under the beam panel, the holes are not accessible. 

 

I have seen a few others in the top cavity post that did exactly what I am trying to do, however none disclosed exactly how it is done. 

 

Here is an Imgur album of the current situation.

Sounds like a job for a dremmel TBH

I have a dremel for the lips that protrude upwards and downwards on the tray and panel, respectively. I am just trying to remove the entire top panel so that I can mount everything then re attach it and sandwich everything.

It looks like its just rivetted in place.  you can drill those out and then re-rivet them after.
